Korean Egg Bread

 I woke up early today to make breakfast, Korean egg bread. It was pretty yummy but kids want to eat more than one...which I didn't make enough...lol😅 Bread is chewy even though I whipped the batter like cake. I also used my extra egg white and cheese. Needed to bake longer since I have a thick bread.

Taiwanese Beef Noodles Soup

 Have not make this Taiwanese beef noodles soup for a while.  So good and quick using instant pot. Didn't go to Asian market so I just use beef chuck. Recipe from thewoksoflife.  Instead of using 100 minutes on meat stew,  I only did 25 minutes pressure cook and then quick release after another 15-20 minutes since I'm in a hurry to eat.😅

Taiwan Sun Cake 太陽餅

 So to sastify my curiosity of second version of heong peng 香饼 without flour, I made some to try. I also made some Taiwan sun cake 太陽餅because I was curious of that as well.  Since I'm making the two pastries, I can't leave out the favorite wife cake...lol. I used one dough recipe to make all three pastries. I think this is good idea if you want to eat assorted pastries. 😋

The sun cake tastes pretty good and kids like them too. So sad for my wife cakes got burnt because I was too busy chewing the leaked heong peng fillings and forgot time. Lucky still tasty.🤣😂

Recipe ➡️ Sun Cakes  reduce sugar if you don't want too sweet.

Waterlily

 Last year I saw the waterlily at Lowes on clearance for only $3. So I bought one home, first I stuck it in my fish tank then there was algea problem so I repotted in another big pot. Didn't really expect much so very surprised to see a flower! Very pretty.  Now come the question where and how to store it in the winter so it can survive the snow here.🤯😆

Chocolate Chips and Macadamia Cookies

 Made some cookies today and it is one of the best. I made two batches and freeze the extra dough for next time. Love this recipe, add whatever you want to it to create new varieties.  Recipe from keyingredient. I find baking at a higher temperature is best. 400 F for 11-12 minutes. I did reduce some sugar, also add in some caramel and marshmallows for some cookies.
